Hello,

Is anyone using any of those two knockbox drawers for Eureka Mignon and can share their opinion?

Am looking for the drawer for this grinder and would like it to be matching it tightly, most preferably as in the second link.
If you guys have any other suggestion, I'm eager to hear these too.

Also, I have never had used a knockbox drawer before, is there anything I need to know before getting one? Another thing is the placement under the grinder - does it have any drawbacks? I can definitely see benefits.

Can't speak matching the Mignon.

You will want to get one you can easily reach into to dry the inside, top when you empty the drawer. Even the vented drawers will have a good bit of condensate hanging from the ceiling.

Personally, I'd stay away from wood handles for ease of cleaning, but that would be a minor thing in reality.

thanks for useful info. In fact one of them doesn't seem to have a ventilation. Good point about the wooden handle.
